Memphis Blues Barbeque House - Edmonton

I went in to pick up lunch around quarter to 12 and was the only customer there. The staff member who assisted me didn’t seem very cheerful or friendly. I ordered the brisket without bread and requested tomatoes as a substitute, but he mentioned they were out. Personally, I would have preferred the brisket to be cooked a bit more thoroughly. I topped the brisket with the beans and coleslaw, which was a nice touch and tasted good.

The food is fantastic, the service is excellent, and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful if you have any questions about barbecuing. I highly recommend giving it a try!

This restaurant is a hidden treasure! The decor and atmosphere are truly enjoyable and lively. The service was exceptional – incredibly friendly and quick. I had a wonderful conversation about beer and received some excellent recommendations for the brews on tap. I ordered a full rack of ribs, which was enormous, and they were absolutely delicious. I also loved all my side dishes, particularly the fries, which were fresh and perfectly seasoned. I can’t wait to go back!

I've never actually heard of this place until I stopped by sobeys next door today and decided to get lunch while I'm here. I ordered the brisket meal and a pint of beer which came to $31 with a tip. The food was served in less than 5 minutes and I was impressed with the size of the meal. The beans were honestly the best I've ever had, I wanted more! The coleslaw was ok, nothing special but not bad same with the cornbread. I was surprised at how good their fries were, apparently you can get homemade gravy to go with them but I'd skip the gravy and enjoy them plain. The Cajun spice they put on them is so good, they were hot and crispy and just like the beans I wished it came with more. The brisket was awesome, I couldn't actually use my fork to pick it up unless I scooped it because it was so tender and just feel apart. It could use a bit more seasoning, lout with the BBQ sauce it was really good. I'll be back to try something different and am really looking forward to it! This place is well worth trying.

Great food and service! Definitely would come back again. We had the calamari and rib ends, both cooked perfectly with good portion sizes. Thanks for the experience!
